DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a story of human exploitation of planet Orsa, a Bronze Age culture. The natives' only assets are stones that their priests bear; both a terrible weapon and a source of energy. Although watchdogs were sent to insure that Earth culture does not affect the Orsans, their efforts fail. When the power of the stones becomes known, the rivalry between competing firms turns deadly and results in a great loss of life, human and Orsan. The hero discovers that the priests are hiding a shameful secret of a past encounter with visitors from the stars and this allows him to change Orsan society forever. The destruction of both rivals' ships leaves the survivors marooned for eight years until a rescue team arrives. Instead of being an occasion for rejoicing, he and a few others are arrested. This results in an armed confrontation between rescuers and natives. The planet is declared off limits to humans but six adults elect to remain and are welcomed to begin a new life among the natives.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSixteen years ago a war that humans had been slowly losing for more than two thousand years ended in a place called Iowa. The victors unknowingly overcame seemingly insurmountable odds at the last possible moments and the losers in this titanic battle fled into the unassailable shadows from whence they had come, hiding behind mathematical equations so complex even they were unable to solve all of them. Sixteen years later humans struggle to rebuild from the ashes, plucking discovery upon discovery from the rubble, waiting fearfully in the darkness of space for the return of that which had almost consumed them utterly. One day, sixteen years later, a confluence of events brings humanity both to the brink of a destiny they were completely unaware of being possible and to annihilation. One day, a term almost without meaning to the seemingly vanquished enemy, fate would rise out of the blackness of space, out of a dimension where fate was as predictable as a linear equation, into another where almost nothing could be reliably predicted even with the most fastidious attention to mathematical detail. One day can be as short as a heartbeat or last forever.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStella is ugly, flies a broomstick and can wield a magic wand. In these respects she is just like the other witch girls in Wartville. But, unlike the other witch girls, Stella does not enjoy turning toads into slime or setting the elves' forest home on fire. She would rather help a bear cub escape from its cage than cook it in a stew. It's only a matter of time before she finds herself in serious trouble. Stella's fate is linked with the fate of two human children, Mitchell and Sarah, who don't even believe in witches. That is, they didn't believe in witches until they found themselves whisked out of their own world and into a completely different one, into the land of Wystovia. Mitchell and Sarah soon find themselves running from an evil wizard who thinks nothing of enslaving dwarves in the mountain mines, turning giants to stone, and terrorising innocent merchildren that his eagles catch frolicking in the sea. Mitchell and Sarah will need a lot of luck and the help of friends to survive.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLong ago, the world Daraen was forged by the High Aedan, the children of the divine Ahar, using seven sacred stones - gifts from the one and only goddess, Iah. But not all of them were content with their creation. Urehel, Lord of Darkness, cast a shadow over the world, unleashing terror and death upon its lands. Now, an ancient evil stirs once more, and the question remains: Can Urehel be truly defeated? Can the hatred he sowed into the hearts of the firstborn humans ever be uprooted? Or will a new breed of darkness, more cruel and relentless than Urehel himself, rise to plunge the world into yet another age of despair? The fate of the world hangs in the balance, as old legends clash with the terrifying possibility of an even greater, more dangerous enemy.
